The Labour Party has won enough seats to have a majority in Parliament in the UK’s 2024 general election. This means the Labour Leader, Keir Starmer, will become the British prime minister and form a majority government.
It ends the Conservative Party’s 14 years in government.
The Prime Minister-designate says his government will always prioritize the country over the party. He said a “mandate like this comes with great responsibility” and that his government will focus on “national renewal.”
“We have to return politics to public service.”
However, vote counting is still ongoing. With more than half of all 650 sats counted, Labour is set to secure one of its biggest-ever majorities in the House of Commons.
